Are You Concerned About Injection Side Effects?

Patient Question

Hello Doctor,

 

When I was a child, I had bronchitis that led to lung scarring. During my treatment, I received a shot in each leg that numbed my legs. Is this a normal treatment? What kind of treatment was this, and could it have caused a nerve injury?

 

Hello,

Thank you for reaching out to Dr. Galen. Please find the below response to your query.

 

Complications related to fibromyalgia at the injection site can sometimes develop months after the injection. If you're still experiencing symptoms, it would be important to undergo some exploratory tests to accurately assess your condition. This will help determine the best course of treatment moving forward.

 

Thanks
